Ready to step into the future of phage research in Africa?
Applications for the PRAN Fellowship are now open. This is more than just a program—it’s a 10-week intensive training fellowship designed as a launchpad for young scientists who want to build real-world skills, contribute to solving antimicrobial resistance (AMR) using bacteriophages (phages), and become part of a growing network of researchers across Africa.
If you’ve ever wanted to go beyond the classroom, gain practical experience, and actually do science that matters, this is your moment.
What you’ll gain:
✔️ Hands-on training in Genomics & Bioinformatics
✔️ Practical experience in Metadata Collection & Analysis
✔️ Skills in Research Writing & Scientific Design
✔️ Training in Science Communication & Advocacy
✔️ A recognized Certification to boost your academic and career profile
Why you should join:
This fellowship equips you with tools many students only hear about but rarely get to practice.
You’ll learn how to analyze data, communicate science effectively, and contribute to tackling AMR using phage-based approaches.
More importantly, you’ll connect with like-minded individuals and a growing scientific community committed to research and innovation in Africa.
Whether you plan to pursue postgraduate studies or a career in science, this experience gives you a strong edge.
Who can apply:
✔️ African citizens
✔️ Fresh graduates or current undergraduates in Biological, Biomedical, Life, Natural, or Pharmaceutical Sciences
✔️ Strong interest in phage research and antimicrobial resistance
No matter where you’re starting from, if you’re curious, committed, and ready to grow, this fellowship is for you.
